Born and raised on the far side of the Atlantic ocean. Always on the trail with the paws of polar bears, heading to the north. My grandfather once was a sailor. He went far out to the ocean. A storm came up and wrecked his boat. When he touched the shore again, he... reached this side of the ocean...
Sverre, I think I must just call you Jon, because I named my son Jon, and I certainly can't pronounce all of the consonants that are your first name--although it sounds beautiful--just not the way I pronounce it, with my Southern drawl. I like the fish you look so proud of in your picture. You are the one who first told me of the writing contest (I'm quite new, here) I have submitted, but have to check to see if anyone has read my short story. Don't have too much time, as my day job is trying to find work as a Realtor.
With a name Sverre and Værness you can't be more Norwegian than their King Sverre by the years 1145. After living in Norway for many years and now in Sweden, the only Scandinavian names that come across are those from Minnesota or the Dakotas, but New York?...well, happy to have one of the berserk descendant among my friends! (LOL) Will be looking at your pages
thanks for adding me as a friend. Not only do I hope to meet and make friends on this site, I also hope to be able to hone my meager skills into quality writing someday. Will try to read some of your works soon.
